In Hungary, with the middle class getting thinner and thinner, more and more people are finding themselves on the brink of poverty.
The four “average” “middle-aged” characters of our documentary are facing typical situations: divorce, unemployment, debt / loss of their homes, homelessness. We do not undertake to make an investigative exploration; we only aim to present these dangerous situations.
